Ingredients
  

1 large store-bought flatbread or naan

2 ripe peaches, thinly sliced

1 cup fresh basil leaves, torn

1 cup creamy ricotta cheese

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 teaspoon balsamic glaze (optional, for drizzling)

Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste

Crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for a spicy kick)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for baking the flatbread.

    Prepare the Flatbread: Lay the flatbread or naan on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

      Mix the Ricotta: In a medium bowl, blend the ricotta cheese with honey until smooth. This will create a sweet and creamy base for your flatbread.

        Spread the Ricotta: Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, spread a generous layer of the honey-ricotta mixture evenly across the surface of the flatbread, leaving a small border around the edges.

          Add the Peaches: Neatly arrange the thinly sliced peaches over the ricotta layer, ensuring an even distribution for a balanced flavor in every bite.

            Season and Garnish: Scatter the torn basil leaves on top of the peaches. Season with a pinch of sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes if you're in the mood for some heat. Finish by drizzling a light amount of olive oil across the flatbread.

              Bake: Slide the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges of the flatbread are golden brown and the peaches have softened and caramelized slightly.

                Garnish and Cool: Once baked, remove the flatbread from the oven. If desired, drizzle balsamic glaze over the top for a touch of acidity. Let it cool for about a minute to set the flavors.

                  Serve: Slice the flatbread into wedges and serve warm. For an extra pop of freshness, garnish with a few additional fresh basil leaves before enjoying.
